2019 Tirreno–Adriatico
The 2019 Tirreno–Adriatico was a road cycling stage race, that took place between 13 and 19 March 2019 in Italy. It was the 54th edition of Tirreno–Adriatico and the seventh race of the 2019 UCI World Tour. It was won by Primož Roglič of Team Jumbo–Visma.


2019 Tirreno–Adriatico, Teams
The 18 UCI WorldTeams were automatically invited to the race. In addition five second-tier UCI Continental Circuits received a wildcard invitation to participate in the event.


2019 Tirreno–Adriatico, Classification leadership table
In the 2019 Tirreno–Adriatico, four jerseys were awarded. The general classification was calculated by adding each cyclist's finishing times on each stage. Time bonuses were awarded to the first three finishers on all stages except for the time trials: the stage winner won a ten-second bonus, with six and four seconds for the second and third riders respectively. Bonus seconds were also awarded to the first three riders at intermediate sprints; three seconds for the winner of the sprint, two seconds for the rider in second and one second for the rider in third. The leader of the general classification received a blue jersey. This classification was considered the most important of the 2019 Tirreno–Adriatico, and the winner of the classification was considered the winner of the race.


2019 Tirreno–Adriatico, Classification leadership table
The second classification was the points classification. Riders were awarded points for finishing in the top ten in a stage. Unlike in the points classification in the Tour de France, the winners of all stages – with the exception of the team time trial, which awarded no points towards the classification – were awarded the same number of points. Points were also won in intermediate sprints; five points for crossing the sprint line first, three points for second place, two for third and one for fourth. The leader of the points classification was awarded an orange jersey.


2019 Tirreno–Adriatico, Classification leadership table
There was also a mountains classification, for which points were awarded for reaching the top of a climb before other riders. Each of the sixteen climbs was categorised as either Superior-, or single-category, with more points available for the more difficult, Superior-category climb to Sassotetto. For this climb, the top seven riders earned points; on the other climbs, only the top four riders earned points. The leadership of the mountains classification was marked by a green jersey.


2019 Tirreno–Adriatico, Classification leadership table
The fourth jersey represented the young rider classification, marked by a white jersey. Only riders born after 1 January 1994 were eligible; the young rider best placed in the general classification was the leader of the young rider classification. There was also a classification for teams, in which the times of the best three cyclists in a team on each stage were added together; the leading team at the end of the race was the team with the lowest cumulative time.

In terms of competitive standard, a total of 906 men and 555 women entered with a semi-elite personal best. Of the 35,460 finishers for the marathon that year, the largest contingent was from Tokyo Prefecture (10,387).

Overseas athletes numbered 7431 – around one fifth of the total. The estimated number of spectators on the course was 690,000.


2019 Tokyo Marathon
In terms of the 12th World Marathon Majors rankings, the result brought Birhanu Legese to joint first in the men's side with 25 points while Ruti Aga's win brought her into first place outright with 41 points (building upon her runner-up finish at the 2018 Berlin Marathon). In the wheelchair division, Daniel Romanchuk kept a two-point lead over Marcel Hug and Manuela Schär extended her lead to 76 points, ahead of Tatyana McFadden.

The 2019 Tokyo car attack was a vehicle-ramming attack that occurred on January 1, 2019, in Tokyo, Japan. Suspect Kazuhiro Kusakabe told authorities he intentionally rammed into pedestrians crowded into narrow Takeshita Street in Harajuku district as a terrorist attack in retaliation for the execution of Aum Shinrikyo doomsday cult members. The  New Year's Day attack left eight injured. A ninth person was also directly injured by the driver. The suspect said he initially planned an arson attack by spreading kerosene with a high-pressure washer at the crowd at the nearby Meiji Shrine but found that vehicles were not permitted there.


2019 Tokyo car attack, Attack
The attack occurred early in the morning, shortly after midnight. A car collided with people on Takeshita Street, Harajuku district, Shibuya ward, Tokyo. The incident occurred close to Meiji Shrine, one of the largest Shinto shrines in Japan. The street was closed to traffic at the time due to New Year's celebrations. The perpetrator entered the street through a gap in the police barricade near the end facing Meiji-dori street and drove 140 meters the wrong way down the street, hitting eight men aged 19–51 and then crashing into a building. The vehicle used in the attack was a rental minicar or minivan with Osaka license plates. The perpetrator fled the scene, but 20 or 30 minutes later, he was found by police in nearby Yoyogi Park.

Samoa, Tonga and Fiji have all declared states of emergency to tackle their 2019 measles outbreaks. When contrasting the scores of deaths in Samoa to the lack of fatalities in Tonga and Fiji, this is put down to the far higher vaccination rates in Tonga and Fiji compared to the 31% in Samoa.

The outbreak has been attributed to a sharp drop in measles vaccination in Samoa from the previous year, following an incident in 2018 when two infants died in Samoa shortly after receiving measles vaccinations, which led the country to suspend its measles vaccination program. The reason for the two infants' deaths was incorrect preparation of the vaccine by two nurses who mixed vaccine powder with expired anaesthetic. The nurses responsible were sentenced to 5 years in prison with manslaughter charges and Samoa began arresting anti-vaccination advocates. The United States' Center of Disease Control sent representatives to Samoa, Tonga, and Fiji to coordinate vaccine efforts and combate vaccine misinformation.
